Hiberner means "to hibernate". It's an interesting and somewhat unexpected word to find in a pop song, making it memorable.
In the lyrics, Shy'm sings, "Pour hiberner toutes les saisons et faire c'que les amoureux font" (To hibernate all seasons and do what lovers do). This metaphorical use of "hibernate" suggests a desire to retreat from the world with a loved one, spending all their time together in a cozy, intimate bubble, much like animals do during winter. It paints a vivid picture of deep romantic escapism.
Amiants – a made-up word that blends amis (friends) and amants (lovers) – dives into the electric moment when friendship starts sparkling like romance. Over a silky R&B groove, Shy'm and Jok'Air admit that the person who comforts them also keeps them awake at night. One minute they feel invincible in each other’s eyes, the next they are wiping away tears and smudged eyeliner. The song paints love as both “bonheur et malheur” – happiness and heartache – showing how powerful and disarming real feelings can be.
Throughout the lyrics they keep asking the same nervous question: “Amants, ennemis ou amis pour la vie?” Will they let their lips meet and risk everything, or stay safely in the friend zone? This tug-of-war between heart and reason turns the track into a relatable anthem for anyone who has fallen for a best friend. Amiants captures that thrilling cliff edge where one choice could turn two companions into lovers, strangers, or soulmates for life.
